I need help figuring out how to search for a type of dress on Amazon.
I'm looking for a dress that is not fitted and has no seam over the stomach/midsection. Does anyone know what I'm talking about? Sort of 'oversized' but not really. And I want it to be dressy for shabbos.
Has anyone come across something like this or know how to word it so I can search myself?
Thanks.

Sheath, shift, or princess style. Possibly A-line though an A-line can sometimes have a waist seam. Usually not.

A sheath dress is a fitted, straight cut dress, often nipped at the waistline with no waist seam. OP is looking for something not fitted, so, no.

Maybe a shift, although I don't see that used much anymore. I'd say swing dress.
